I don’t know what possessed Kevin McCarthy to sally forth onto the Dr. Suess battlefield. I can only speculate that he thought it would be hip, slick and cool of him to chime in on the latest cultural melee and show how in touch he was. Unfortunately, it’s not playing out that way — in fact, just the opposite. He looks like a complete bozo reading from Green Eggs And Ham, juxtaposed next to footage of the Democrats getting crucial legislation passed.

Take a look, you decide how well this is going to age.

Conventional wisdom says there’s a tweet for everything. This is McCarthy’s. Mark my words, this will get a lot of play in 2022.

  1. Someone should clue the idiots in that Dr. Seuss produced some artwork that was “risqué” to say the least……including his book “The Seven Lady Godivas”…..

    Then there is his “Pocket Book of Boners”.

    …….then ask them if they would be as comfortable with 6 year olds reading these books as they are with them reading the 6 books discontinued by the Seuss Foundation.

    This stupid non issue would end right then and there.

    • You think any of these “concerned conservatives” would be the least bit upset if Dr Seuss Enterprises decided to discontinue “The Lorax” or “The Sneetches” (the former title with its very pro-environment take and the latter with its decidedly anti-discrimination on the basis of physical appearance take)?
